A couple of weeks ago I went to visit my kid in college. That was the best time I have had in a long, long time. We went to a gem show, got to visit with John of johnsgems, went out to a couple of state parks, and best of all we went rock hunting at the Woodward Ranch. It had been a while since we'd done that together and a lot of childhood memories came back to us of how we used to collect out there together several years back. As always Jan and Trey were just the best people in the world. We collected some agates which right now are in the tumbler. Some of them I cut into slabs. Even though I only spent a night and a day there, the fun that we both enjoyed being with each other doing the things we like to do made it all entirely priceless beyond what any amount of money could buy. I'm glad my kid isn't "too cool" to not want to hang around with Pop.

Well said, Condor. Glad you had that time together. Yes, there are some things that money could never buy.
